Performance Task:
Speech Choir Ensemble
This performance task aims to deepen students' appreciation of poetry and prose by engaging them in performances that explore and
express the emotional and thematic depths of the text. Students take on roles as performers within the speech choir, employing voice
modulation, facial expressions, and body movements to breathe life into literature. Their primary audience consists of fellow students, teachers,
and potentially parents and other classes during school assemblies or open days. In this scenario, the class is divided into groups, each tasked
with selecting a piece of poetry or a dramatic excerpt studied during the quarter. These groups interpret and perform their chosen pieces as
cohesive speech choirs, aiming for synchronization, expression, and interpretation to convey emotional and thematic messages. This
performance serves to develop students' oral skills, teamwork, and understanding of literary expressions. Success is measured against standards
such as maintaining focus, utilizing voice modulation effectively, delivering lines smoothly and clearly, employing expressive facial cues, utilizing
effective body movements and gestures, and maintaining audience engagement through eye contact and body orientation.
